What Your Dog's Sleeping Position Reveals About Its Character

What does a dog’s sleeping position mean? Most dog owners know about their pets' habits and easily understand when their dog is happy, worried, surprised, or scared. You can also reveal some of your dog's secrets by analyzing its favorite resting position.

SUMMARY:
- The snowball is one of the most popular positions among dogs - and among cats as well! In this position, a dog curves its spine, and its nose is located not far from its tail.
- The pancake is the most restorative position for sleep, and, in most cases, that's exactly when REM sleep occurs. So don't get spooked if your doggy starts to kick and paddle out of the blue. It's just acting out its dreams.
- If you notice that your adult dog prefers Superman position, it may indicate that it feels hot. Perhaps it's been a sweltering day or your dog has been playing and exercising too hard. Your dog may be simply exhausted.
- You can sometimes catch your pet curled up in a tight ball with its tail wrapped around its body and its paws neatly tucked away. This way of sleeping resembles the fetal position in humans.
- If your dog prefers sleeping on its back with its front legs bent over its chest and its back legs extended, you’ll probably guess that it feels at ease.
- By sleeping in the dead cockroach position, your pet can be cooling off. You must have noticed that some areas of dogs' tummies aren't as fluffy as the rest of their body.
- The sphinx position allows your dog to take off running as soon as you call it. Not many dogs sleep this way, and this is kind of a transitional state between wakefulness and rest.
- If your pooch is a burrower, it needs more affection and attention than any other animal. When such dogs snuggle into something cozy, they are searching for security and comfort.
- If you notice that one part of your pet rests on a comfortable sofa and the other resides on a hard, unforgiving floor AND your dog is sound asleep at this time, congratulations! You're the owner of a unique dog!

I have had my dog, Martin, for about 9 years. He was a rescue, and it was pretty obvious he was abused. When we first got him, I let him in the bed with me, and he tried staying as far away from as possible. He would try to avoid us, and wouldn't let me pick him up. I left him alone, and would comfort him, and try to reassure him I'm safe. After about a year, he came up to me, and sat next to me. Another year after that, and I could pick him up, and cuddle with him. Now, when I come home, he runs towards me, and jumps into my arms, he lets me pick him up, and follows me around all day. All. Day. His most common sleeping position is when he lays out on his side. He puts his back to me, and lays with me all day. He is truly, my best friend.

Ur dog must love u soooooo much. For him to have that backstory and to have that much trust in u and for u to have that much trust in him, that’s an unbreakable bond u and ur dog share. U must not be able to imagine life without him. I share a bond with my cat, and I dread the day that she will no longer sleep with me in my bed. Take care of ur dog, like u would take care of ur family, and remember, he is family.

My dog does all of them, she's definitely a funny one 😂 she gets really derpy sleeping on her back as well and will sometimes stare at me with a big grin while in that position LOL

[@henrikharbin5521]

My housemates' dog Brush is a Pomsky. When they first got him about 6 years ago, he would sort of scooch his way under the couch to sleep, usually while on his back. We live in the San Diego area, so it does get hot in summer and cold in winter, but never in my life have I ever seen another dog do this. We call it the Mole.

[@lonewolfmorgan]

I got my jack Russell when he was a month old. My dad went to get me a puppy for Christmas and was looking around at all the jack Russells. He saw this one little puppy passed out on his back. People were poking and prodding him and other dogs were running around and climbing over him and he just slept through it all. So my dad decided to get that one because he seemed to put up with anything. 11 years later and he's laying next to me right now, fast asleep in that same position and snoring like a bear.

[@erinreynolds5897]

Both of my dogs like to do the sphinx, tight ball, and pancake. And its usually a pattern. When they go to sleep like the curl up in the spots of the cough that retain the most heat and then they somehow transition to pancake mode during their sleep. When they wake up they go into a sphinx position and after a couple of minutes they go back to pancake mode lol. Right now, one of my dogs is doing the sphinx on the stairs and watching the door for my mom.

[@lailakhankhan90]

The picture here is of my previous dog who bonded with me as no human. Having said the same, I have now another red Norwich terrier, all of eight months now, of which four with me. She sleeps on her side, exposing her belly, neck... or on her back. Recently, at a lunch with friends, she stretched out from my lap, half her body suspended, to lean her head on a much lower table, fast asleep. A photographer took a snap of her! I am filled with joy to see she is as comfortable in her new home. She arrived terribly sad... I guessed she missed her family, felt her pain, and tried hard to make up. In these four months, she has adapted to new sounds, scared stiff. I try to be in her place, understand her fears, and slowly, together we are becoming a team, overcoming such shortfalls. She loves now snuggling upto me when asleep... and upon awakening, is the delight of my life.. That expresses how much I truly love the company of this superior being.. superior to us humans...

How about 'The Husky'? This sleeping position is a mix off all of the previously mentions, including the bonus. But also includes climbing into bed with you (and your partner) and laying across both of you or deciding which pile of clothing is comfy and lay across ALL of it. It also includes becoming a doorstop/draft stopper, usually at a front or back door. Because that's my dog😂

My dad had rescued a senior dog and in the five years he lived with us before passing away, always slept in the dead cockroach position. It's been two years since he passed, but knowing how happy, how much he loved and trusted us really means the world to me. I'm so glad he enjoyed his final years with us ❤ My dog is a burrower and loves to be completely covered, head and all which makes winter nights even better and our puppy prefers to be on his back or in the dead cockroach position. He'll wake up and stay in the position while staring at me which looks ridiculous haha

Pretty sure it's a breed thing too. I wouldn't say a donut ball says the dog is untrusting of its loving owner, it could just be what it prefers due to body shape and breed type.

Had 2 dogs that was a big baby in a protective and caring way. 1 is a English Labrador Irish Setter mix, and the other is a Labrador, don’t know why they’re protective, but they do it because they care. They curl up into a ball, lay in a straight line, and sleep on their side.

[@Gabri3llaV]

When my dogs sleep in their crate (they love their crate and it’s large) they sleep curled up in a ball or snowball when they sleep in my room they sleep the pancake or on their back! This video made me feel better

What the dog doin

[@curtisfranzen986]

My Cookie (rescued Pit Bull) generally starts out in " snowball", but will choose either my wife Kathie or I to do so against. Though she will frequently shift through the night. My personal favorite is what I call "the burrow". That's were Cookie completely tunnels underneath the blankets and the only way you can see her is by the last third of her tail sticking out.

My chihuahua is more often a borrower as I always make sure he has a blanket in his bed with him. I think it's just the breed, he stays cold a lot of times so he likes a blanket. The funniest thing about it is his ability to "tuck himself in" as he is quite the pro at it.

My dog burrows himself under everything for nap time. When we sleep at night I noticed he is always laying at my back. If I turn over to my other side he gets up right away and goes from my chest to my back all night long. He really does have my back lol.

my dog often sleeps in the sphynx/snowball positions depending where hes at. if in bed with me or on the couch he's on his side belly open but if hes on the floor je sleeps like this. I'm fairly sure its because its nighttime and he's got a lot of guarding and protective behaviors, he sleeps in that sphyx position more often when he sleeps infront of my door above my head (my bed leaves a gap where the door opens where my head rests and so he sleeps there half the time) and snowball when hes on the floor next to the bed or in his kennel alone.

[@ebonypegasus9864]

One of my dogs fav sleeping positions is with his head on my foot, knee, leg.

My little dog loves to sleep under my electric blanket. He will follow me around the house around that time or not time and when I say should I go turn on the blanket till run to the bedroom hop on the bed and tap at the controller for the blanket. He loves the warmth as he's small short-haired and quite skinny. It's our snuggle time. LOL

My 3.5 y/o Shiba Inu usually sleeps in the pancake position. She does sleep in the bed with me & the hubby, at night. She has to have her bottom facing me and her spine is right up against my leg. Sometimes she’ll even use my leg as a pillow. We’ve had since she was 8 weeks old.

[@Liv.Xx14]

My dog sleeps in every position I guess that shows a lot about him 😂

[@user-dj4zb1pt4z]

Cute visuals, great voice, but some of this info is incorrect or misleading. Dogs bred to be burrowing hunters love to sleep burrowed up. They're not feeling insecure. Dogs bred to have "pushed in" faces (brachycephalic breeds) such as bulldogs, have difficulty breathing and may sleep on their backs because it's easier for them to breathe, not because they're feeling unusually relaxed.

[@mrinvader]

Minpins are burrowers .. My Ruby [ rubetch ]goes under cover all the time. A blanket is a betch magnet lol

[@Hitsugix]

My labrador used to sleep on his back almost every night. Maybe some dogs really are just comfortable, because mine didn't have any problems with breathing.

[@user-dj4zb1pt4z]

@@Hitsugix Yes, some are, sure. But you had a lab, not a brachycephalic breed.

[@puggirl415]

I don't know about that. My pug rarely slept on her back. She usually did the snowball or the pancake and sometimes laid flat on her tummy with her front and back legs spread out. Maybe she didn't have trouble breathing.

[@interia342]

My youngest Norwegian Elk Hound cross Cocker Spaniel sleeps in the snowball all the times. This may be because if she needs to get something or I bring her my leftovers she doesn't miss out on the extra food.
